Not only is the Honda Fit EV (shown at the top of this post) a well-executed electric conversion that’s fun to drive, it ranks as the single most-efficient electric car you can drive out of a dealership today.

The Nissan Leaf, now in its third year on the market, is by far the volume leader, having sold several times more than the entire rest of the list combined.

It’s also built in the U.S. using lithium-ion battery cells fabricated right next door to the assembly plant in Smyrna, Tennessee.

With a base model priced at $28,800 before incentives, and a 6.6-kilowatt charger cutting a full battery charge to about 4 hours, the latest Leaf is now nipping at the heels of the Chevrolet Volt for the titles of best-selling plug-in on the market.

The EPA rated the 2013 Leaf’s range at 75 miles, although that calculation isn’t directly comparable to the 73 miles of the 2011-2012 Leaf. It’s complicated.
